Comment Challenge for September

[ChristineG]

Hi Becky, I am starting the comment challenge for Sept. When you have a minute come tell us what we are supposed to be doing? LOL A disclaimer for me. I am not Becky and nothing I do or say shall be held against her. LOL:lol: :lol: :lol: I know I love to have a place to focus on commenting and have a goal, so I started one. :D

[ChristineG]

I have been commenting on the grannies, DET and various others.

[ChristineG]

Let's see this post # 6,036. I want to get to at least 6,700 this month.

[sammdc]

hehehe you sure this isnt the "gundi comment thread for september" lmao hehehe

[Becky Soto]

LOL!!! Thanks (again) gundi, I have been out of town, thankfully for the last time for a few months, and I didn't have internet for the last couple days...EEK! :D

This month is an easy month, just post in this thread whenever you've been off doing your commenting magic, and you'll be up for the random drawing for some free page kits (or other item) from me. Easy-peasy, yes? :)

I have to say, those numbers under your avatars are getting really impressive!!! I wonder how many 10K folks we'll have by the end of the year??? ;)

[sammdc]

well I am trying Becky hehehehe

[carolat]

Check out the DET layouts - I have been commenting over there and they are quite excellent! I really don't know what my goal will be since I'll be quite busy this month, I think I'll just be commenting here and there and see what I come up with. :)

[~sarah~]

I can't believe I have missed this thread each month.
Does anyone mind if I join along???
Do we just post here when we have commented on layouts?

[sammdc]

yes sure do Sarah and jump in we chatter on about all the great layouts we are commentingon and I must agree the DET layouts are all looking fantastic

[carolat]

I just directed my mom to browse through the DET gallery and we were discussing how good all the layouts were - I wonder what criteria the judges will use to decide who all goes on to round 2 - nature photography, heritage pics, pictures of kids - I wonder what will be the preferred item since we all used the same kit?

[MarsOlson]

My goal for September is 10,000. Thats about 500 comments.

[ChristineG]

Hi good morning everyone. I have been commenting on the DETs and the grannies! I've found some great LOs. :D

[~sarah~]

I just reached 6,000 posts woohoo !!!!

I have commented on all the feed the hungry layouts thread today.

[Victoria]

Congrats Sarah on reaching the 6000 posts. I hit that last month.
I've been commenting in the DET gallery today, and also in the new LO gallery. I finished August at 6768 comments.
I did over 1000 comments in August. Lets shoot for the 1000 again this month.

[~sarah~]

I have just made a big step in catching up on my scrappy chat gallery so I have made around 70 posts today already.

[carolat]

I was commenting on the DET gallery and I found a 0! It was probably uploaded just as I refreshed my screen - doesn't take much to make me happy!

[gail0423]

I commented on some random layouts and some DET layouts today! :)

[mrichar383]

I've been spreading love to people who had no comments. :)

[Victoria]

80 comments done since the 1st of September. Did lots of DET today, lots of fabulous LO's theres, as well as some with zero comments.

[flrebareba]

well Last month I hope to get 5,000 this month!!! I made my goal last month so lets see if I can do it again.

[Ms M]

Started the month at 10,229 - now at 10292...

[carolat]

I did some random layouts yesterday - will work on DET today.

[Victoria]

Did commenting again yesterday, some in the DET gallery, the rest in the new layouts, mostly with zero previous comments. Now at 6928 comments.

[cj672005]

I'll jump in, too. I've already made a bunch of comments since the first, but I'll start with the number right now: 375. Kind of small, but I'm still new. Give me time! :) Oh yeah. The DET Contest is a great place to comment....expecially on mine! :) Just kidding. I'd love to get some comments from you guys, though, as I'm sure so will all the other contestants! My gallery has a bunch of hungry layouts, too, just in case you want to check that out!

Off to comment.

[~sarah~]

Another bunch of comments made today :)

[felynn]

Catching up on my commenting started the month at 512.

[LindaSH85]

Spent a half hour in the DET round one gallery and another half hour in the feeding layouts thread. I lost count after 15. :)

Oh, and I changed my name because although I liked my old name, it was a bit odd (which is ok) and it wasn't necessarily making the right impression. So, you can call me hag - that's fine. I just wanted to project a less snarky image. ;-)

[AliceAMattison]

I've been commenting, hope to make 2000 by the end of the month.

[Victoria]

Been commenting on and off again today, DET gallery and the new LO's with zero comments. I've have now done 200 since the start of September. Nearly at the 7000 mark.

[AliceAMattison]

Been commenting this morning...the new layouts. BBL

[tape]

I fed the hungry layouts for 9/3.

[ChristineG]

Wow! Congrats to all of those who are making such fabulous progress already this month! I was just thinking wahoo me to have a hundred done, but now I can see I am falling behind. :lol: Been commenting here and there.

[cj672005]

Wow! I've almost made 100 comments since yesterday am! I may hit 1000 by the end of the month...or more!

[conniejp73]

Hi everybody! I'm sad to say but I didn't do so well in the comment department for August so I'm gonna try real hard to do better in September! I started at 685 so we'll see if I can reach last months goal of 1000?

[felynn]

I must remember to post here more often :D I'm at 580 now. Haven't made as much progress as I would like... Are we still making an effort to find 0s?

[ChristineG]

I must remember to post here more often :D I'm at 580 now. Haven't made as much progress as I would like... Are we still making an effort to find 0s?

You can just do whatever you want to comment on, this month, but 0s are always nice, cuz it is so sad when you get absolutely no feedback. :)

[ChristineG]

Been feeding the grannies and other random ones. Felynn, I see your round 2 blinkie, Congrats to all of those who participated for taking a chance and to those who are moving on.

[ChristineG]

Went and finished feeding the hungry too. :)

[AliceAMattison]

I've been feeding this morning...this is my 1600th post! Yay!

[conniejp73]

I've been leaving feedback here and there. Did maybe 10 or 15 today. The girls and I all have a head cold so they've been very whiny and I haven't really felt like doing much. I did manange to post a Lo for the Word Art challenge from this month.

[minnmom79]

I have made a great start to commenting this month and hit the 500 mark! Hopefully I will get to 1000!

Hi everybody! I'm sad to say but I didn't do so well in the comment department for August so I'm gonna try real hard to do better in September! I started at 685 so we'll see if I can reach last months goal of 1000?

Just remember Connie, that even 1 comment brightens someone's day, so don't focus on what you didn't do, focus on all of the smiles that you are bringing to someone's face because they got to share their art with you and you appreciated it. :D

[ChristineG]

I have been all over the site tonight, commenting, but now I keep getting server busy all over the place so I am heading for bed. :)

[sammdc]

been commenting on all the awesome DET contest layouts

[ChristineG]

Got almost all of the DET contest LOs commented on, but now I have to go play mommy. :D

[cj672005]

Feeding new layouts in the gallery.

[carolat]

Got to do some housework & pay a bit more attention to my 3 yr old. He's feeling attention-deprived! Seems like the computer is taking alot of my time these days :)

[cj672005]

Been commenting on some more new layouts in the gallery.

[ChristineG]

Been popping here and there, making comments.

[ChristineG]

Good morning, comments from me. :)

[Victoria]

400 comments done since the 1st of September, many of theme with zero previous comments.

[carolat]

MNO is in a couple hours - commented during the day - even found a few zeros!

[Victoria]

[AliceAMattison]

Been commenting here and there this morning....

[ChristineG]

[carolat]

Commenting on new layouts and some in the Gimme More Gallery -

[Ms M]

Haven't been commenting tons, but I've consistently been at it this month... at 10,416 now...

[LindaSH85]

DET is helping me re-establish comment karma in a big way. I spent over half an hour in the Round Two gallery, and I'm not even close to half done with comments. But I truly had to stop because I was beginning to repeat myself and sounded stale and cliched and just not terribly sincere, despite being sincere. Gotta take a break for a while.

[sammdc]

well I am up too 7500 woohoo so ahead of my weekend limit woohoo

[Victoria]

More commenting in the past 24 hours. Now at 500 comments/posts since September 1st. Still finding lots with zero comments to make comments on.

[LindaSH85]

just 27 more DET layouts to go and I'll be able to go back to regular commenting again.

[AliceAMattison]

Been commenting in the DSP gallery this afternoon.

[~sarah~]

Done some comments over the last few days :)

[ChristineG]

Been commenting here and there

[Victoria]

Just noticed that I did another 50 since yesterday morning. Now at 550 for this month, so ahead of the goals so far. Still finding many LO's with zero previous comments to leave love on.

[Victoria]

Does anybody know if there are blinkies for 7000 posts?

[sammdc]

did everyone who won the random prize for August get their prizes yet?

[sammdc]

I dont think so victoria I think the next one maybe 10 000 so we will have to get busy commenting to get too 10 000 by christmas :)

[carolat]

Been commenting around!

[Victoria]

Thanks Sammdc for the heads up on that. I've been on a roll today, and am now up to 601 for the month os September. At this rate, I may make it to 8000 this month. Still commenting on lots with no previous comments.
We need to get more people commenting!

[carolat]

[ChristineG]

Been commenting on the grannies

I've been away for a while doing some more pages. But I'm back commenting, now...at least for a little bit. Still have more pages to scrap, though. I've made a lot of comments since last time, though. Since I started at 375, I'm at 823 now!

[Ms M]

Been at it some more... lots of lovely LOs to look at... at 10,524 now...

[ChristineG]

Tons of fabulous new LOs from the grannies.

[carolat]

Looking through my pictures, trying to find some that I missed. I usually put them in folders labeled with the page name, but there are a few miscellaneous ones that I just leave in the month folder, so I'm hoping to find a gem or two on my treasure hunt! In between that I have been commenting on the DET layouts and some new ones as well.

[ChristineG]

I have been commenting up a storm today, grannies, feed me and DET! Wow! Great LOs

[Victoria]

800 comments done so far in the month of September. I'm still finding many LOs with zero previous comments and making comments on them.
The round 3 DET LO's are stunning.

[sammdc]

[cj672005]

I'm up to 850 since my 375 from the start of this month.

[Victoria]

Been commenting but my hands are hurting when I type, so they have been shorter than normal.

[cj672005]

Yay!!!! 1000 posts! I've made 635 this month! That's double what I made since I joined in June of this year!

[Victoria]

Congrats on your achievement cj. Well done. I'm now almost to 7800 comments. I might make the 8000 before the end of September (that would be more than 1200 for the month)

[cj672005]

Wooohoo! We're on a roll!

[ChristineG]

More comments from me. :D

[ChristineG]

Congrats to cj and Helene! WTG, not looking good for me to make my goal, it is just too painful to type much. Hopefully if I lay off and not type so much, it will clear up quicker.

[AliceAMattison]

I've been commenting off and on all day...still trying to get to 2000 and only have today, as we leave for NC tomorrow a.m. and won't be back until Oct. 2 or 3.

[Victoria]

Congrats Alice. Way to go. Well done on reaching your comment goal for September.

[carolat]

I have been commenting at the Feed the Layouts thread and at the DET gallery - sure feels good to get back in the swing of things! With the DET competition, everything came to a screeching halt while I was working on those layouts :)

[sammdc]

[Victoria]

Good luck on reaching the 10,000 by Christmas Sammdc.

[mariafer]

Man I should have joined this earlier since I decided I would comment on every DET layout (I missed on the 1st round - just way too many) but I did do it for the next two rounds. I am really trying to get out of the 2,000s but don't think it will happen in 5 days so I will have to come find you all next month... :)!!!

[ChristineG]

Been commenting in the granny thread and randomly.

[gail0423]

I'm closingin on 12,000! I commented on all the DET layouts as well as lots of random ones too!

[ChristineG]

I just checked - I fed the hungry layouts this morning before work!

[cj672005]

1075 for me and counting!

[cj672005]

I've reached 1100! The New Layouts have a lot of 0 comments!

[felynn]

Loads of comemnts this month but I'm nowhere near my goal.

[Victoria]

Nearly 1200 comments/posts done in the month of September. lots of these in the new layouts gallery with no previous comments.

[Ms M]

Haven't reached my (probably unrealistic for me) goal, but I have been commenting along this month... at 10,658 now...

Edited to add... wow! to you guys who can do over 500 comments in a month... I'm totally impressed!!!

[Victoria]

I am over the 8000 comments now. I started September at 6769, so more than 1200 this month (a record for me), and done mostly LO with zero previous comments.

[cj672005]

Yay Victoria!!!

I can't believe how many comments I've made this month! Amazing. I'm at 1161 (not counting this post). I can't beliebe I only had 375 at the start of this month! I finally reached my goal: to have "Addicted to this place" under my name...because that's exactly how I am!

I've also almost uploaded 100 layouts. Don't think I'll have 6 done by Sunday night, though.

[ChristineG]

The month is ending and not looking good for my goal, but not bad for not being able to type. I don't know what number I am on. bbim to check. :)

[ChristineG]

6585, I might make 6,600 by the end of the month. 15 comments tomorrow should be pretty easy. :)

[cj672005]

Wooohoo gundi! You can do it!

I've hit 1200+ total comments. That's over 800 for this month! Don't think I can do 200 more in one day, but stranger things have happened!

[sammdc]

woohoo and I think I did more than ever sure did a lot of commenting on all athe DET layouts

[Victoria]

I did alot of commenting this month. I started at 6769 and finished at 8048; a whopping 1279 this month.
I did a lot of commenting on LO's with no previous comments.

[cj672005]

Well i've done a lot of commenting! Up to 1217 now!

[~sarah~]

I cannot believe it over 500 comments this month woohoo !!!

[ChristineG]

I made it to over 6,600 in September. Not quite as high as I had hoped, but 600 for a month is not bad. :D Congrats to everyone who did so many comments this month. I think it is awesome how much sunshine you were out sharing, and I know many times it was on my LOs, so I just have to say THANKS!

[Becky Soto]
